Confirmed: Barcelona Monitoring Out of Favor AC Milan Star Amid PSG Links

Last week, Fichajes reported that Rafael Leão is drawing interest from three major European clubs: Arsenal, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain. Nonetheless, one Spanish club could take the lead in this race.

Although Leão is under contract with AC Milan until 2028 and has a hefty buyout clause of €175 million, the report suggests that the Italian club might be open to negotiating his departure for around €120 million.

PSG sees Leão as a potential winger to challenge Bradley Barcola, or they could move him to the right side to compete with Ousmane Dembélé. For Manchester United, he could serve as a replacement for Marcus Rashford if the club chooses to sell him. Meanwhile, Arsenal is eager to strengthen its attack as it aims to become a serious contender for the Premier League title.

Additionally, according to SPORT, Barcelona are watching Leão’s situation at AC Milan. The Spanish club may be looking to add another player in his prime years to their squad and could be willing to invest significantly in a new signing.

What’s the latest on Rafael Leão leaving AC Milan?

Mundo Deportivo reports that Barcelona are monitoring Rafael Leão’s situation at AC Milan in case he becomes available. He has struggled to find favor with Paulo Fonseca this season.

TuttoSport recently reported that Leão has told his representatives to monitor the situation closely for January, especially if things don’t improve with Fonseca or there’s a coaching change.
